Hi Junkenpo, I tried something similar last year and the responses I received were less than helpful, I wasn't at all impressed with the lack of imagination that the jewellers had.
I like 'different' things and I need someone that thinks like me/outside the box - a tall order really ;):p
A fellow stone lover suggested somewhere that I can try so i'm waiting for them to get back to me with an answer.
 
I've posted pics of these before, probably randomly, but here they are again :p (ginormous pics, no idea why)
Band rings.
I like them worn on my left hand, usually middle finger, and to match bracelets or bangles of the same stone, that are worn on that wrist - only stacked 2 together here so I don't flood the thread.
Horn, Jade, Rose Quartz/Lavender Amethyst, Lapis/Tigers Eye (lighter in reality than this dark image)

This is the Rhodochrosite band ring I bought (and spoke of yesterday), it's not natural though, far too vivid and perfect, and for my stone items I prefer the natural untreated muted colours.

millicat... hopefully something comes up, or you find a stone worker that can create your vision!

I especially love your faceted rings.

And if anyone wants to save me from myself.... I've been keeping an eye on these listings 1 . 2 . I'm really liking the colors and the simplicity of the beads, especially on the bracelet. I don't know enough about semi precious to determine treatments of the stone, though.

The contact I was given wasn't able to make a band ring, so still I wait .......:p
 
Here's my ring with carnelian. What I love about the stone is that it can be a deep brownish red or look like a maraschino cherry depending on the lighting. Amazing.
